The NSG is a completely different organization. One in which we have no veto power, or any other particular form of leverage.
(The US-India nuclear deal was seen as useful though, in that it allowed a China-Pakistan nuclear deal as well.)
The UNSC is a different situation. Veto can be used, but it won't be needed. UN reform requires ratification by all P5 members.
China's current tactic though, seems to be delaying it. The Chinese government recently opposed India's motion for quick UN reforms, for example.
Not really true.
My understanding is that NSG requires a consensus for any decision. So effectively every member has a sort of veto.
That China wants to delay it is clear. That's why I said that China will not act as a leader on this. It won't openly antagonize the countries that want to get in but will try and delay it as much as possible.
That is fine by me.

The only possibility is permanent seat with no veto power. Even the US would not support veto power for anyone.
Let's see. May be that is what happens. I have my doubts that India will accept it.
